History Lesson

About Lode Runner. A fun read even if you've never played.

8 of 20 levels in Uukrul done. Feels like I'm more than halfway there. The first few mazes wound back on themselves but I have no extra programming to add, and some of the later mazes are either half filler or wide open spaces. There are far fewer possibilities for teleports.

I just completed an interesting maze where you had a big 5x5 hall.

Doors led to:
* sub-maze you couldn't leave that wrapped about itself endlessly
* doors that wrapped to the other side of the 25x16 map
* standard weird teleports and spinners
* a small spinner puzzle that lead to one of the eight stone hearts you need to win the game
* a hallway that seemed to wrap to the other side but in fact led you to a new set of rooms that gave even more bizarre teleports
* infinite hallways you could go back on
* a very long hallway to the next level

Once I mapped it the solution seemed easy, but it was a really good pure mapping puzzle until then.
